My first rig was a Commodore C64.
The first PC we had was a Pentium 100Mhz with a 1GB hard drive. (Duke Nukem 3D and Silent Hunter ran smoothly on it:D).

I had a C64 for a first computer too :D Boy I miss playing all those fun games :88)

First PC... I can't quite recall... actually I think we never got ourselves a PC for the family until I got my Compaq Presario years later. 98 was the OS I had on it. And it ran pretty well, I even played Unreal Tournament on it (tho it had a few lags when I was respawning, I always went Sniper in it :yeah:)
I was forced to share my Compaq until my 2nd bro and mum finally got their own.
Then my first XP was my crappy Dell Dimension 2400 (with a craptastic 128MB RAM) :dead: It completely and utterly killed my inspirations I get for art. It made a return with the arrival of my new computer, a Medion with 2GB RAM :D Now I'm playing all games that never operated properly on Dell with full power. (and whipping up a lot of digital arts too, all tablet drawn).
(btw I'm on XP Pro now, my first XP was a Home edition) And I had been on iMacs at my old schools. IMB's at my last school..
So I've been on quite a few coms, lol.


Alright, quite enough of my rambling :doh: I'm gonna go and check on my nation :arrgh!: and get my revenge on a soldier who shot me in the arse in Operation Flashpoint.

This was my first computer.

1.5 k of memory. I was the big kid on the block :yeah:

I think my 2nd bro had a similar computer to that. I remember playing with it when he wasn't using it, lol

My first comp was Spectravideo MSX 728 back in the 80's. Then C64 and eventually a PC.

Hey! I represent that remark :haha:



Yeah, that one is similar to my first Pentium, got mine in 1995.

My intro to comupters was a TRS-80, OS was Basic. You had to load the program onto the computer with a cassette recorder. It took about 6 minutes, almost as long as it takes a netbook to load Windows Vista today :D Hard drive? What's a hard drive??

I also had a Timex Sinclair, but it was not user friendly, and data entry was a chore with the flat keyboard :shifty:

I went for a while without a computer in the 80s, but my buddy had several so I would buy games (Blue Max, 688 Attack Sub, Das Boot, Silent Service) and play them at his house. When we got Windows 3.1 at the plant, I got back into them.

Man, those were the days!

I remember in college having to take a data entry class that involved punch cards :o

Me too :oops:

My fist computer was a MS-Dos one,
my Fist windows experience was with Windows 95 on a
65 Mhz CPU
8 Mb Ram
4 Mb Video card
computer, and did I think that was a mayor improvement :D

First PC I owned myself was a Pentium 100MHZ, but had been playing PC games at a friend long before that. Still have a Commodore and 1 or 2 386 in "storage" (my bedroom). All started with Flight Simulator and Duke Nukem 3D I think. :hmmm:

my first pc was a windows 95. got it from a old computer store in the late 90s.:yep:
